Please take a look at the 9-month chart of Google below with my added notations:

After Google's previous earnings release in October, the stock jumped over 100 points. The stock then embarked on a nice, steady uptrend over the following months while creating a clearly defined trendline of support.

Unfortunately, Google broke its trendline support last week and fell below 1100 before stablizing. To show that the trendline break was just a temporary setback traders would want to see Google jump back above its trendline. Otherwise, a breach of last week's low would most likely lead to lower prices.
